Stemettes Solar Powered Product School Trip 2026

Inspiring your students has never been easier than with these school trips! Networking, product design, and more will show them what a STEAM career really looks like.

For girls, young women, and non-binary students aged 11-16, these events are designed to bring careers education to life, connecting students with real professionals working across Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Maths. Through interactive sessions focused on creating sustainable, solar-powered toys for children, talks, and activities, students gain a deeper understanding of how their learning links to future career pathways. Students will also gain knowledge of different tech tools such as TinkerCAD and will showcase their creations at the end of the day!
